One of the biggest stories to come out of San Diego Comic-Con in July was the upcoming movie featuring Ryan Reynolds’s Deadpool — an antihero who goes against the grain of comic book superheroes like the Avengers, Superman, and Batman. The other big story about the Deadpool movie was that its trailer, along with X-Men: Apocalypse DC’s Suicide Squad, had leaked online.

On Tuesday, Fox unveiled the official trailer for Deadpool (above)— Reynolds had said Fox wanted to clean up the special effects before its wide release. Fox also released a red band version of the trailer:

Deadpool will hit theaters on February 16, 2016.
